Pittsburgh Flu

Hey Flu!!!!! So you invaded my life for 4+ days!!!! All along, I received “secret cure recipes” from various Pittsburghers.

Worsh dahn a few IC Lights and a Primanti’s samitch.

Wrap an old sock with Vic’s Vap o Rub ahrand ’er necks

Shove Vic’s Vapo Rub up each nostrils

Melt Vic’s Vapo Rub in a pan of boinling water then sit over it with a towel over your head an inhale the fumes

Then, of course, the 6-7 various recipes for a Hot Toddy

God, I tried EVEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEthing to pretend it wasn’t you, FLU!

Then just when I thought that I wasn’t SICK ENOUGH, the Bronco’s Defense fell asleep and let the Ravens score some crazy long-pass play with hardly any time left in the game which well…you know what happened. Then after that, the Texans fell star-struck to Tom Brady and the Patriots…it’s CLEAR why they didn’t call themselves the Houston TACKLERS… cuz they have no idea how to do such tasks!!!!

The one thing that FINALLY broke the fever and downward spiral of NyQuil land was the pic above sent over by one of our followers. Now THAT is a shirt we all need to have!!!!!!

So flu, despite your best attempt cleanse me to the point that I was when I was first born, “All-Pink-On-The-Inside,” and your gallant charge to cook my brain from the inside out at 102 degrees over 4 days, basted with Gatorade, I am upright again, Ya Jagoff!!!

Thanks to Chuck E. Stugots, email list follower, for the pic and for being today’s Honorary Jagoff Catcher!!!!
